Does it also need the reverse lockout adaptor, or just the shift knob works?

You’ll need the lockout collar unless you get the short teardrop shape.

Okay... so I need to be more careful in my pictures. Bloody detectives the lot of you.

hahahahaha

in my defence... these are my "gardening shoes" hahaha they're for odd jobs out the house, including fitting gear knobs hahaha

Thank you for bringing shame to my family.

Ironically, somehow... Crocs are in fashion now?!?!?!? what is this world...

Update on my gear knob.

It's absolutely fantastic. Just been on a very very spirited night time drive, whilst keeping it @ roughly 4k... a few 5-6k spikes... but yeah shhh we don't talk about this.

The gear knob makes a huge difference, not heavy enough to feel like I'm breaking the gear box, but heavy enough that slotting into gears feels like a dream.

Highly highly recommend a weighted gear knob @ 400 grams or more... personally I think the 700g+ ones sound a bit stupid to me... but whatever floats your boat.

Billetzworkz gear knob is simply gold.

Excellent value if that’s the case!

How long did yours take to arrive out of interest?

Garden slippers mate, you can't beat them!

Do you know why there are holes in crocs?

That's where all your dignity falls out.

Just over a week, it was very fast. They also declared it as a gift... lol I didn't ask, so was expecting some import tax to pay. Nope lol.

Spent way too long looking at knobs the past few evenings

I’d rather drive a manual than wear Crocs

Did you check the tracking info at all before it arrived? My order went to 'shipped' in about 3 hours, but the tracking info hasn't updated with any detail since 25th

Yeah just wait It took just over a week, so might be end of this week... mine was delivered on Saturday so you have time! It didn't update much on the tracking app tbh... I think because its USPS, and it isn't a super tracked service

Ordered mine on 24th. It got "stuck" in NJ for a few days but has now arrived in the UK.
Hope mine is labelled as a "gift" as well

Muggins here paid the extra $10 for the faster DHL delivery but no updates yet

Mine arrived this morning. No fees to pay

Beautifully machined with matching beanie!

Will post some installed pics at the weekend

I got my "label created" notification on the morning of the 25th so hopefully mine is not far behind

 

[GR86GRY]

Just as a heads up for Billetworkz orders, I chose to pay extra for DHL so my order arrived faster.

As per their website:

However, this is once they've dropped the package off and "We do not drop off DHL packages every day as the nearest facility is quite far from us". So despite paying extra for expedited delivery, they haven't actually been to DHL in a week now so mine hasn't left yet.

BOO!

 

[James-UK]

I chose USPS and it took 8 days

 

[GR86GRY]

And saved yourself $10! .. probably get a new pair of crocs for that (I'm not bitter!)
